NOVEL NEXT Chapter 75 Duan Ran’s Scandal
"Please ask the people inside to put down their weapons and stop coercing the hostages. Let's talk about what you want, okay?"
The soldiers outside found a loudspeaker and shouted into the prison guard hall.
They didn't dare to shoot easily, after all, there were more than 30 prison guards inside who were coerced by the prisoners.
It is still unknown why the prisoners fled en masse.
If a head-on conflict does occur and gunshots are fired, it will cause an uproar within the base and may cause turmoil in the base.
At this moment, in the prison guard hall, the prisoners, at Mu Jiu's suggestion, tied up all the more than 30 prison guards who had been knocked down with ropes and trapped them in a corner to prevent them from escaping.
Before rushing into the hall, Mu Jiu had vaccinated everyone. Their goal was to rehabilitate and get out of prison, not to rebel and be suppressed.
At the same time, Mu Jiu saw the young officer, Duan Ran, among the troops surrounding the prison guard hall.
It was the soldier standing next to him who had shouted just now.
Mu Jiu felt happy. Her purpose was to alarm the big shot, but she didn't expect that it would be him who came.
Chief Duan has always been known for his ability to eliminate evil and promote good, and for his integrity. Leaving this matter to him will save a lot of trouble.
Mu Jiu found a police loudspeaker in the hall and shouted to the outside of the hall on behalf of everyone inside:
"If you want to negotiate, you can ask your boss Duan Ran to take off his weapons and come in alone, and we can talk.
In exchange, we can let 10 prison guards out.
If you agree, please ask Duan Ran to come in directly. I am counting down ten seconds now and will not wait until the expiration date.
Ten, nine, eight, seven..."
As soon as Mu Jiu's words came out, it caused quite a ripple in the surrounding military ranks. Everyone sensed a lot of information in these words.
First of all, the people inside are willing to talk about it, which shows that this matter is not simple, but there is still room for maneuver.
Secondly, the people inside know their boss, even his name is clear.
Furthermore, the people inside were willing to exchange the boss for ten hostages, which shows that the boss's weight is not light in the eyes of the people inside. What connection might this matter have with the boss?
Finally, the person who took the lead in shouting was a woman's voice, which sounded young.
Could it be that he is an unlucky suitor for their boss, a thousand-year-old bachelor who has been single for thirty years?
With this analysis, this large-scale hijacking case suddenly became a little subtle.
Although this exchange may not be cost-effective, judging from the character of their boss, he will definitely be willing to exchange hostages.
Duan Ran seemed a little familiar with this female voice, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.
After all, he performs tasks outside every day and has come into contact with and rescued countless people.
Duan Ran was full of doubts and ignored his subordinates to stop him. When Mu Jiu counted to the last three seconds, he resolutely took off his weapons and equipment and walked into the prison guard hall alone.
When he saw Mu Jiu inside the door holding a loudspeaker in his left hand and an electric baton in his right hand, Duan Ran's expression was slightly startled, "Miss Mu!"
"Meet Sir Duan again!"
After Mu Jiu said this, he signaled to the prisoners behind him and threw the ten tied prison guards out as agreed.
"Aren't you supposed to live in the second-level resettlement area? Why were you imprisoned in the third-level resettlement area?"
After Duan Ran finished speaking, he scanned the faces of everyone in the hall to see Mu Jiu's status among this group of people, and couldn't help but ask:
"You couldn't have planned this kidnapping, right?"
No wonder he thought so, after all, this was a strange woman in front of him.
He is someone who can lead more than 20 weak women to rely on burning firewood to keep warm, revitalize the land, and feed everyone in the last days of extreme cold.
Her leadership and ability to act were amazing, and even he admired her a little.
"Chief Duan guessed it, and I won't hide it from you. Everything that happened today was to attract the official's attention.
But it's not accurate to say it was a plan. Like most people here, I was imprisoned for wrongdoing but had nowhere to redress my grievances.
The police at the base did nothing, and the prison guards even threatened that the only people who could get out of here would be corpses.
Being forced to do so, we had no choice but to take extreme measures in order to seek justice for ourselves.
After all, it is not easy to survive in extreme natural disasters. I came to the base to find a strong support to survive.
Instead of dying after just one month of living here, what do you think? "
Mu Jiu's words naturally refer to the hot spring resort and farm that were forcibly occupied by the authorities.
But only Duan Ran could hear this among the people present.
He is the executor of this matter.
If the government hadn't planned that land into the base, Miss Mu would never have been imprisoned in the place in front of her.
Moreover, the price given by the official old men was completely lowered by bullying the little girl.
Although the base's food supplies were in short supply, they were so low that even he couldn't bear to stand them, and he couldn't dismantle them in person.
That's why he tried his best to promote the agreement when Miss Mu asked for a resettlement housing qualification certificate.
"Since Miss Mu has asked me to come in alone to negotiate terms, I might as well just say so.
What do you want from me to calm this conflict? "Duan Ran is a smart man and said straightforwardly.
“I want the base prison to sort out the whole story and evidence of all the prisoners’ cases here and give everyone an explanation.
But if your base is out looking for food and supplies and really can't spare the manpower to solve the case, then cancel the prison and let everyone leave.
After all, allowing justice to be judged in an inherently unfair place will only lead to greater backlash in the end. "
Mu Jiu didn't beat around the bush and pointed it out directly.
Duan Ran's expression instantly became extremely serious, "What on earth did these prison guards do to make Miss Mu so dissatisfied?
The prison is a decision made by the base's top brass, not Duan alone.
But if Miss Mu has any evidence, she can provide it to me. If she can convey it to the higher authorities, I will deliver it myself. "
Speaking of this, Mu Jiu sighed and handed a stack of Polaroid photos from his pocket to Duan Ran's hand.
"This should be called evidence, I took these pictures just now in the chaos.
The first photo is of a mahjong room made up of interrogation tables in an underground cell.
When we rushed out of the cell, the prison guards who kept saying that they had no time to deal with the case were playing mahjong.
I would like to ask Commander Duan whether the matter of playing mahjong and gambling on supplies is more important than the innocent lives of the hundreds of people here? "
Seeing this, Duan Ran frowned slightly.
“The second photo is of the cabinet in the interrogation room, where the prison guards kept a large amount of cigarettes, liquor, TT, and even many small toys.
I think this is probably their bet in playing cards. As far as I know, these materials are at sky-high prices on the base's exchange list.
I don’t know if the wages in prison are very high or if there is plenty of money.
After all, no one here has seen their fire card since the day they came in. "
Duan Ran frowned.
“The third photo is of three men and women in the dressing room at the back of the hall upstairs.
When a few eldest brothers broke in, they were shirtless and having sex on the sofa, forgetting everything.
This was the first time I saw such a scene in prison, so I took the opportunity to take two pictures to keep as a souvenir and to open my eyes! "
Seeing this photo, Duan Ran's cheeks suddenly turned red. He looked up at Mu Jiu unnaturally and said:
"Miss Mu, leave this matter regarding the prison guards to me. I will take them all back for trial today.
You just said that the whole story and evidence of all the cases here should be re-examined. I agree.
I will leave a group of people later to deal with this matter specifically and ensure a satisfactory result for everyone. Do you think it will work? "
